Hey, all!It was 103 degrees when I drove home at 5:00 this afternoon. WHAT is up with that??! In the spirit of summer still languishing, I made a salad for dinner that I thought I would share with you. I guess that is what happens when you start a blog. Everything you do, you think, "Hey! This would be fun to share. I wonder if anyone else would enjoy this?" Hence the salad. Really. It is fabulous and very easy to do.

Summer Salad Grill steak or chicken. I used Top Sirloin-it was on sale. Otherwise, I'll get the really thin cut of steak and it takes about two minutes to grill or do in a pan.

Put the salad and boccoli slaw in the bowl.Chop up the snap peas, mango and red pepper into small chunks.Toss in a handful of peanuts and edamame.Toss all together.

TA DA!!

Serve salad in a bowl. Add dressing (I don't do this in the big bowl-everyone in my family has a different dressing preference.) Lay strips of the BBQ'd meat on top and enjoy!

One last thought for the day. (Remember, this post is entitled "RANDOM Musings...!"I am having waaay to much fun doing my projects for the Sinister and Sweet Swap put on by Kari Ramstrom of artsymama.com

So, here is a sneak peak of what I am doing. It's a secret to my partner, so just a peek, now.

Ok.. I have been trying to rack my memory bank..There were flower pots involved and crushed oreo cookies to resemble dirt.. and maybe ice cream.(?) I thought it was a cake but I could be wrong. Were there gummy worms.. hmmm. It definitely had a floral theme.. and it definitely WAS your mom! :)
